if you stop eating any type of meat, there are people on here that will give you some kind of vegetarian name. i never know i was a vegetarian because i do not eat liver, until i started reading some of the post here. i always thought vegetarians didn't eat meat, then i found out thought all you have to do is say whatever you eat is not really meat. fish is not meat, chicken is not meat. i must be planting them too deep, because i can't get them to grow in the back yard.

There is no name for someone who eliminates meat except for chicken. Some people will call themselves the made up term pollotarian, but it is just made up by people looking for a label. As I said in another question, I have to laugh when I hear pollotarian, it seems as if people need to label themselves so badly that they will make up anything. Whats next people who only eat pork calling themselves a porkotarian?
I could call myself a teapot, and even go around telling people I am. Many will nod and agree, but when I walk away they all know full well I am not a teapot.
Its great that you are no your way to becoming a vegetarian. IMO chicken was one of the easiest meats to give up. It is basically flavorless, its the spices that make it taste like something. The faux chicken products taste the most like the thing they are mimicking, compared to the other fake products(in my experience). You should try some of the faux products as you are making your transition and learning more recipes, etc.

i'm a vegan.... countless the time. you notice, my mothers and dads stay in a various state than my husband, daughter, and that i do. My mom has been encouraging me to be a vegetarian because of the fact it does get a touch tedious looking eating places i will eat at, and foodstuff she would be able to cook dinner and serve that i will eat. countless the time I finally end up ingesting some thing thoroughly diverse than all of us else. nicely, i desperate to be a vegetarian each time i'm at my mothers and dads' domicile, this is purely some cases a 365 days. according to threat i'm a sellout, yet oh nicely. Christmas replaced into dazzling this 365 days. i even have been given to eat Christmas cookies... and cheesecake! yet back on your question. She isn't a vegetarian. in actuality, ingesting chicken is worse than ingesting pork interior the eyes of maximum vegetarians.

Hi cosmo girl. Nice Avatar.
I applaud you for the effort toward becoming a Vegetarian 101. Chicken disqualifies you from Vegetarian 101. No Chicken at all. Chicken is classified as meat(flesh food).
Leave off the Chicken but you may eat "eggs"(smile). All dairy products put you in the first class for Vegetarians. This will make you a Lacto vegetarian. No dairy products at all will take you to level two and that is call Vegan.
I hope this helps.
NO CHICKEN PLEASE but you can eat the vegetarian chicken call "Chickette". This one is a soy product but it is meatless. Quite tasty(smile).
Invest today in a good Vegetarian cookbook and you will be quickly on your way.

Sorry, you heard wrong.
There is no such thing as a vegetarian that eats meat
(chicken is meat).
Pollotarian is not the right word to describe a chicken eater.
Unless You are a "believer of chicken".
(And yes, I am the one who thumbed down anyone who used the word "pollotarian")
Any one who eats meat is a meat-eater.
You can call yourself an omnivore if you'd like.
but you wouldn't be correct in calling yourself a vegetarian.
If you are interested in becoming a vegetarian, there are a lot of chicken substitutes out there.
Try morning star farms chik'n nuggets.

Other than being a little dry, those MS farms nuggets taste like chicken.
You can fix the dryness by dipping them in some BBQ sauce>> I'm pretty sure that Kraft original BBQ is vegetarian.
I used to eat them when I first became a veggie.

Can I ask you where you got the idea that vegetarians eat chicken? I've heard other people bring this up and there is no way a person can be a vegetarian and eat chicken.

This person would be a NON-vegetarian. Whoever told you that some vegetarians eat dead animals was sorely mistaken. You can be a person who eats no meat but chicken if you want, but please do the world a favor and do not call yourself a vegetarian. Vegetarians do not eat the flesh of ANY dead animals, nor do they eat slaughter by-products like gelatin or rennet.

It's called an omnivore. Vegetarians don't eat meat and chicken is meat. Sorry, kid.

I woudl call them "a meateater who doesn't eat red meat and all that stuff"
There is no connection between yuor diet and the word vegetarian.
Not saying you are wrong to eat chicken, thats your choice, just wrong to use the word vegetarian.

They might call themselves vegetarian, but since I define "vegetarian" as one who doesn't eat animals, I don't consider them vegetarians.
Some people use the term more loosely than others. It's annoying to us real vegetarians, but so far, we have been unable to make it a law.
